Theoretical background Upper course The source of the river is normally found in an area of high ground. The river usually flows through a steep V-shaped valley. Most of the erosion that occurs in the upper course is vertical and as the river bed is eroded lower the valley becomes steeper. The river is narrow with a shallow channel. As discharge is calculated by measuring the cross sectional area of the channel multiplied by the velocity‚ the discharge is small. The river is mainly slow flowing

To what extent are floods necessary for the formation of river landforms? River landforms are formed by either depositional methods or erosional methods‚ and the landforms that floods are necessary for are formed by depositional methods‚ but there are landforms that are formed by erosional methods where floods are not needed to create these landforms. The main landforms that are formed by floods are levees‚ floodplains and oxbow lakes. The most obvious example of a landform where

Amphipod Reburrowing Assignment 1. What is the problem or the question to be solved? The question that was presented was how the pollution in the water is effecting the benthic organisms that have limited movement if at all and they can’t escape the pollution around them. 2. What is the hypothesis that was tested? The hypothesis was that if the contaminated sediment in the water affected the Amphipods burrowing‚ then the reburrowing time for L. Plumulosus amphipods should increase. 3. What are

The Seven Sisters Country Park Project Introduction This project is about the Cuckmere Estuary and the physical features of The Seven Sisters Park. I will also talk about the flooding of the park and the courses of action that could be taken if I ran the park. In this project I will assess whether or not the park is well managed in my opinion. Physical Features Of The Park- The park has many interesting physical features that make it a brilliant and unique landscape. The Cuckmere

In many places rock units can be described‚ grouped together‚ given similar characteristics‚ and placed into lithofacies. These lithofacies are important for interpreting the past depositional settings of the rock units. At the Cemex Quarry‚ we went through three stratigraphic columns‚ describing the different rock layers‚ and placed them into distinct lithofacies. The first lithofacies we described was of an Imbricated Clast-Supported Conglomerate. The first thing that stood out was the orientation
